Well…well…well…The leaks about Comey are starting to come already. One of them claims that the Comey FBI offered a Russian hacker named Yevgeny Nikulin a deal. Yevgeny Nikulin is wanted by the FBI for allegedly hacking into US companies and other cyber attacks. Comey’s FBI agents promised Mr. Nikulin money, American citizenship and a free apartment for taking the fall over hacking of the Clinton campaign. If this report had been false, you would think the FBI would come out with full denial that this deal was ever made. Instead, the FBI declined to comment.

In the aftermath of the global WannaCry ransomware attack, which has spread around the globe like wildfire, a significant number of corporations and public services have found their infrastructure grinding to a halt, unable to operate with unprotected if mission-critical computers taken offline indefinitely. Some of the more prominent examples so far include:

NHS: The British public health service - the world's fifth-largest employer, with 1.7 million staff - was badly hit, with interior minister Amber Rudd saying around 45 facilities were affected. Several were forced to cancel or delay treatment for patients.

Germany's Deutsche Bahn national railway operator was affected, with information screens and ticket machines hit. Travelers tweeted pictures of hijacked departure boards showing the ransom demand instead of train times. But the company insisted that trains were running as normal.

Renault: The French automobile giant was hit, forcing it to halt production at sites in France and its factory in Slovenia as part of measures to stop the spread of the virus.

FedEx: The US package delivery group acknowledged it had been hit by malware and said it was "implementing remediation steps as quickly as possible." .

Russian banks, ministries, railways: Russia's central bank was targeted, along with several government ministries and the railway system. The interior ministry said 1,000 of its computers were hit by a virus. Officials played down the incident, saying the attacks had been contained.

Telefonica: The Spanish telephone giant said it was attacked but "the infected equipment is under control and being reinstalled," said Chema Alonso, the head of the company's cyber security unit and a former hacker.

Sandvik: Computers handling both administration and production were hit in a number of countries where the company operates, with some production forced to stop. "In some cases the effects were small, in others they were a little larger," Head of External Communications Par Altan said.

One place which seemed to have emerged relatively unscathed from the global cyber-havoc (aside from the US, which is ironic as it is the U.S. NSA that was created the hacking software) has been China. Or so it seemed due to lack of media reports from the mainland. Now, courtesy of 95cn.org, and its twitter account, we have the first visual evidence that China too was materially impacted, to the point where not only local ATMs had been taken offline, but Chinese traffic police, immigration authorities and various public security bureaus and schools have suspended normal work until the malware threat is ...

ABOARD THE USS GEORGE H.W. BUSH, Persian Gulf — While NavyF/A-18 Super Hornets deal death from the sky on Islamic State targets in Iraq and Syria, the EA-18 Growler is jamming enemy communications — and potentially enemy drones too.

The Bush, which has been launching sorties in support of the counter-ISIS fight since early in the year, has four Hornet squadrons flying constant missions against the enemy. But also key to the fight are its squadron of Growlers and E-2C Hawkeye aircraft, which can detect airborne threats at distance and coordinate strikes from the air.

All fall under the command of Adm. Ken Whitesell, commander of the Bush carrier strike group. In an interview aboard the carrier, Whitesell said he believes the importance of the airborne Growler capability is underscored in the current fight with the emergence of small, commercially available unmanned aircraft systems as a weapon against coalition ground troops.

“You’ve probably been watching the unmanned aerial vehicles — homemade, Amazon-delivered, radio-controlled,” Whitesell said. “[ISIS militants can fly] homemade bombs over the top of forces and drop them by crashing the gyro-copters. So how can we attack those? The easiest way to do that is potentially to jam the signal and stop them flying.”

The Growler, which is nearly identical to the Hornet, features wingtip ALQ-99 jamming pods and ALQ-218 radar warning receiver equipment. Growlers fly regular sorties in concert with Hornets, though it’s much less easy to see the effect they have on the fight.

While Whitesell believes electronic warfare assets play a role in countering enemy radio-frequency capabilities, from small drone control to improvised explosive device detonation and...

When students from Charlotte’s Victory Christian Center School decided to revive a rocketry team tradition of naming their rockets, one of the groups christened their rocket Trump.

And if there’s anyone who likes seeing his name on things, it’s the president. So when the team went to Washington, D.C., on Friday to get ready for the national competition, they ended up showing their entry to President Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

“That’s a mean-looking machine, huh?” the president said as the team set down their sleek black projectile with his name in gold letters.

Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, introduced the team when the national press corps came in. They spent a little under 5 minutes exchanging pleasantries and having their pictures taken.

The problem with political correctness is that no one is above it. It’s a destructive force that cares not for political affiliation, good deeds, context, intentions, or anything else — its only job is to criticize and find fault.

Not even leftists who constantly feed the beast can escape its wrath. Take a look at comedian and actress Amy Schumer. She says all the “right things” a celebrity liberal is supposed to say. She even openly admitted to cutting a gun scene in her new film, “Snatched,” in order to help promote gun control.

The movie follows a mother (Goldie Hawn) and daughter (Schumer) who are on vacation together as they run into trouble: They’re kidnapped and have to escape together.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. government had a $182 billion budget surplus in April, confounding market expectations for a deficit, according to Treasury Department data released on Wednesday.

The budget surplus was $106 billion in April 2016, according to Treasury's monthly budget statement.

The fiscal 2017 year-to-date deficit was $344 billion compared with $353 billion in the same period of fiscal 2016.

When accounting for calendar adjustments, the surplus last month was $145 billion compared with an adjusted surplus of $146 billion the prior year. The adjusted deficit for the fiscal year to date was...

The firing of FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday has “cleared the pathway” for the Justice Department, headed by Jeff Sessions, to relaunch an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of classified data while she served as Secretary of State, according to insiders at the bureau.

“This time, we are going to tackle each and every breach as a criminal act, and react accordingly,” an FBI insider claims.

In the wake of Donald Trump’s dismissal of FBI Director James Comey citing “serious mistakes” and “mishandling” of the Hillary Clinton investigation, the FBI source claims “the Clinton probe was a faux probe.”

“We aren’t talking about Congressional hearings that span months and involve political tit for tat. We’re talking about agents on the ground with search warrants and the power to arrest the minute a law has...

While secretary of state, Hillary Clinton made a personal call to pressure Bangladesh’s prime minister to aid a donor to her husband’s charitable foundation despite federal ethics laws that require government officials to recuse themselves from matters that could impact their spouse’s business.

The Office of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina confirmed to Circa that Mrs. Clinton called her office in March 2011 to demand that Dr. Muhammed Yunus, a 2006 Nobel Peace prize winner, be restored to his role as chairman of the country’s most famous microcredit bank, Grameen Bank. The bank’s nonprofit Grameen America, which Yunus chairs, has given between $100,000 and $250,000 to the Clinton Global Initiative. Grameen Research, which is chaired by Yunus, has donated between $25,000 and $50,000, according to the Clinton Foundation website.

“Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton telephoned Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in March 2011 insisting her not to remove Dr. Muhammad Yunus from the post of..

The Democrats have gotten their wish from just 6 short months ago; James Comey is no longer Director of the FBI - fired yesterday for his handling of the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server. The former FBI director apparently thought it was a prank when he saw news of his dismissal on TV while giving a speech to employees at the Los Angeles office.

Democrats loved Comey before they hated him, and now love him again

Democrats were enamored with Comey over the summer when he famously recommended against pressing charges in the Clinton email investigation. Then, they soured on Comey after he reopened the investigation a little over a week before the election - based on information obtained by the NYPD from Anthony Weiner's laptop while under investigation for sexting an underage girl.

Comey closed the pre-election investigation two days before polls opened, finding no wrongdoing - however the many in the DNC said the damage had been done, with many (including Hillary) blaming the FBI director for Clinton's loss. Comey was vilified by the left, which is perhaps why Stephen Colbert's audience cheered last night when the rabid Trump foe (and Podesta pal) broke the news of Comey's firing. Meanwhile, Democrats in Washington are totally melting down - suggesting things like Trump "staged a coup," and is a traitor for firing the (once again venerable) James Comey.

And it seems that Trump is back to his old ways, talking trash over Twitter - invoking campaign trail Trump:

Some have even suggested Trump even trolled Comey and/or the deep state on Comey's dismissal letter, which spells out "I WIN" down the left side:
